"Feeling a bit down" is not depression. Coming to terms with the fact
that your brother sadistically beat you, tortured you and worse when you
were 12 to 14 is depression. You don't just shake stuff like that off by
going flying.

Nawh, you shake that stuff off by going to the gun range with a picture
of your brother... And then going to his house afterwards... In such a
situation, you are depressed because you feel helpless that feel that
you can't do anything about it... The solution is to do something about
it... Take a baseball bat and beat the crap out of the other
individual... When every bone in his body is broken and he's begging
you to put him out of his misery, you'll find that you're not so
depressed anymore... If you're unlucky enough to not be able to do this
because he's already dead, go **** on his grave... Awh 'ell, take a
couple of 6-packs with you so that you'll have plenty of ammo...

After that, go get laid and go flying... Depression cured...
